Are you ready for Christmas? Well here are my favorites from Mattel...

What little girl doesn't like Barbie? My daughter is going to flip when she opens presents on Christmas and sees her 2008 Holiday Barbie. The 2008 Holiday™ Barbie® doll wears a glittery, silvery gown from the movie Barbie™ in a Christmas Carol.

Kayla is into make-up BIG time! She is always asking to have some or even better to put some on me. It is for this reason that the Barbie Candy Glam Styling Station is perfect for her. Building on the hugely popular “candy” trend, girls will be able to look pretty and have fun doing it, as they are able to create their own lip gloss for the first time! Girls can create beautiful hair styles and mix their very own yummy candy flavored lip gloss with the Candy Glam™ Style Station™. Girls can make lip gloss using the easy-to-use lip gloss mixer, four different flavored and scented lip glosses (strawberry, blueberry, grape, vanilla) and loose glitter. Girls can then choose their favorite colors to blend and add sparkle from the glitter wand. By simply attaching any of the three “sweet treat” containers to the mixer, girls spin to create their very own creations. The containers can be used to store the lip gloss or serve as storage for jewelry or accessories. Girls can also style the beautiful candy-scented styling head using the hard candy hair clip and the pretty hairbrush included.

For the animal-lover in your life, give a gift that truly helps our four-legged friends! Children love animals and now they have a chance to play veterinarian with the Barbie™ “Care N’ Cure” Wildlife Doctor set! The adorable and educational role play set includes an endangered species stuffed animal patient (Snow Leopard, Polar Bear or Giant Panda) that kids can nurse back to health using a thermometer, milk bottle, syringe and bandages. A donation will be made to the International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW) towards helping protect endangered species.

Barbie® doll’s Party Cruise provides the most fun and amazing getaway adventure for Barbie® and friends, featuring three separate play areas, a water slide & poolcuzzi™ with dolphin; a rotating buffet with "live" aquarium; and a performance deck with lights & sounds. The five-star cabin is equipped with an "entertainment system," mini fridge, two beds, lots of play pieces and a storage area

For the boys:

James is crazy about Cars. So I know that he will be over the moon when he opens presents on Christmas. The perfect playset for your little’s one stockings are the “CARS” Mini Adventures™ Two-Pack Assortment inspired by the hit Disney/Pixar film featuring kids’ favorite characters in all new scales and proportions. Kids can recreate their favorite scenes or create their own adventures with these pocket-sized playsets and vehicles. These exclusive mini vehicles are available in a variety of themes kids love, including military, fire rescue and police vehicles. The playsets are available in three different themes, all inspired by scenes from the film.

This new version of everyone’s favorite modern-day hero, Walkin’ Talkin’ Lightening McQueen, lets kids play out all their favorite scenes from “CARS” as Lightening McQueen talks, walks, and fuels kids’ imaginations. Walkin’ Talkin’ Lightning McQueen captures the spirit and personality of the “CARS” character and features lights, sounds and phrases.

Hot Wheels® continues to deliver action-packed playsets this holiday season with the introduction of Hot Wheels® Volcano Shoot-Out™, the first playset to combine LED technology with traditional crash and smash vehicle play. The LED lights project different images behind the "volcano" while players launch their Hot Wheels® cars at the images to score points. This innovative technology allows for 360° of play, allowing boys to launch Hot Wheels cars from every angle creating a whole new way for boys to play with Hot Wheels®.
